Explosive and plush yet given great posture with a nervy line of acidity.

RECENT TASTING NOTES
The 2022 Chardonnay Dupratt Vineyard comes from vines planted in the early 1980s on a high elevation surrounded by forest and was raised in 12 months in 15% new French oak. It pours a bright medium yellow/straw color and offers notes of honeyed citrus, poached pear, and baking spice. Medium to full-bodied, it has rounded, rich concentration, with an elegant feel on the palate and a rather long finish that slowly tapers and lifts. A very pretty wine, it’s going to have a wide window for enjoyment over the next 6-8 years
